Best and Worst way to start the New Year off....

Let's start of with the worst, shall we?

I hopped on the scale after three weeks of denial, a holiday eating extravaganza, and an eating tour of NYC. It was not pretty. I am up almost 6lbs. I mean, what did I expect? Still, it hurt my eyes quite a bit.

The best?

I actually went to a New Year's Day spinning class this morning! It was really hard to get up and go, but I did it. What a great way to start off the day.

I'm not going to mope about the gained weight. I hold myself fully responsible. Now, I just need to work it off. I certainly know how to do that.

So, here's to a kinder scale by the end of this week. And, a sigh of relief that the holidays are over and that regularly scheduled programming can continue.

Me Me Me

I've struggled with being overweight for most of my life. I've lost and gained many times. Two kids later, it's not just about me anymore. I've decided that being healthy is my top priority. Inside, I've always wanted to be a "runner". I've only ever run a 5K race, but it ignited something in me. My dream is to get fit and run as far as my legs will carry me. A marathon even. Someday.
